In terms of monstrous typos and mistakes, this is right up there with the very best. Nintendo and Sony did once collaborate on a disc-based system as an expansion for the Super NES, however, though the big N decided to move on from the project and worked to release the Nintendo 64 as a cartridge-based console instead. Sony continued work on the technology anyway, and entered the market with the PlayStation.

Still, we don't think a collaboration is currently on the cards for Nintendo to release a PS4. Oh, Los Angeles Times, what have you done?

Welsh ex-pat Tom is responsible for the day-to-day running of the site. He's the guy to thank for the generally brilliant nature of the content which massages your eyeballs on a daily basis. Also has an unhealthy obsession with all things Bowser.

Wow. I understand not everyone is a gamer, and not everyone follows game news, but if you're going to write a professional article, do some research! A quick Google search could have made all the difference.

Maybe this could have been mostly fixed w/ punctuation. Nintendo's Splatoon, or better still Nintendo's new game, Splatoon on their Wii U console. Almost same thing for the headline, save for the "debut" part; it would make clear the headline was 2 different subjects: Nintendo's white defeat, Sony wins, if that is at all what they were getting at. It just makes no real sense. Ppl make mistakes, but wow, what a mistake! A few typos could have a huge impact. It's just telling that non-gamers can not be introduced to the goings-on/events of the gamer's world by other non-gamers. Gamer's are the best ppl to introduce non-gamers to the events/goings-on in the world of gaming.

That headline is funny enough, but "the Nintendo Splatoon"? This is the hardest I've laughed in a while! That game must be getting so popular to make this journalist think it might be a new console instead of a game. On top of that, I think the person even misspelled the guy's name playing the Wii U.

Part of me doesn't want to laugh so much because this is a newspaper in a city with millions of people with some who wouldn't know any better may be deceived, but this still makes a good laugh.

I think they were talking about the Wii U, actually. It might just be a bunch of self-entitled brainiac journalist(s) trying to make a clever statement or something along the lines of "Wii U is FINALLY a next gen not really".

Wow, oh wow, oh wow. That is pretty sad. I mean, I know people who don't particularly care about video games shouldn't expected to know all the ins and outs, but this is beyond acceptable for any journalism outlet. I've seen blog posts by middle schoolers that are more accurate!

Why be political opponents on a video game enthusiast website, when you two can come together in rage-and-ridicule dumping on the author and/or his bosses for not being video game enthusiasts themselves?

@DarkKirby — I was thinking the same, except for Video Game All-Stars Kart Racing.

These ideas all remind me of the hilarious bizarre "Cartoon All Stars to the Rescue" anti-drug special from circa 1990. ... Only MUCH more bad-ass.

I can only imagine all the trolls just trolling little kids about Nintendo Splatoon. And then those kids begging their parents to get a Nintendo Splatoon, it's obviously gonna be the best imaginary system ever!!! lol

ya I seen that on Facebook, shows how sad and out of touch LA Times is lol

As for what I seen at the bottom of the article, Sony definitely wasnt the winner this year,not even close! Nintendo and Microsoft deserve that title WAAAAY more, they came out, showed us games we wanted, and kept everthing sweet and short so they could show lots of games. Sony on the other hand bored the crap out of us for 2 hours with stuff we knew about, and in the middle showed 2 games that where new (Little Big Planet 3 and Uncharted 4).

Gaming is now a huge industry, and 2 minutes of research on the internet could have corrected this. There's no excuse. The reporter should be fired. There are many unemployed people in the US who deserve the opportunity more.

HOLY SHIZ! I forgot that Nintendo has announced the NEW White Playstation 4! This is the biggest news of E3, a new color to have as an alternative to that ugly Black Playstation 4. Oh, and that new Nintendo handheld known as the Nintendo Splatoon.

Ahhh, yeah!! First I have my Nintendo 3Deees and my Nintendo Wii U, and now I have my Nintendo Play Station and the future Nintendo Splatoon! Nintendo really knows when to make new hardware of the future!

Almost as bad as the youtube video on The young Turks where they said watch dogs was plagerising some american star because the game character wore a hoody and was black(which the star in question always wore)...Journalism at its best folks!
